"Arbeit Macht Frei" that translates as "Work Brings Freedom" was the sign over the gates of Auschwitz. This sculpture could be an illustration of the extermination mechanism used at Auschwitz-Birkenau illustrated in "Anatomy of the Auschwitz Death Camp" published by Indiana University Press. www.iupress.indiana.edu/product_info.php?prod...
